Creating our own track

As unable to use songs already out there, Camilla and Bex began to write a song. And are now compoaing a track using garage band.
The lyrics are below.


Verse one

Its the morning and im ready to go
Check me out im real sexy yo yo

Bailey and brooke aint got nothing on me
and when i roll past the boys they fall for me


Chorus
ooo living life as me
oooo live life so dangerously


Verse two
i got my breakfast bowl and im ready to roll
ah dude its such a beautiful day
as i cruise past the neighbours they all wave and say hay

but bitches at school they be hatin on me
i thinks its coz they just cant see
how god damn hot i can be

my name is C to the H to the AND the LER quick call the LPD yo

oo making noises
and making choices
i cant do this
i might lose it

check it one two three
just look at you and me
were cruising down the streets in our 50cc
a sitting and a listening on our mp3's
so bow bitch and get down on your knees.

Consideration of foley sounds

Foley sounds are added in post production to enhance the quality of audio for films. These are produced by a foley artist. Below I have looked at the sort of music used in chick flicks, this will help us when creating our own piece.



This song is used during Legally Blonde.




This song is used during Aquamarine.


Both these tracks are up beat and have lyrics that have perhaps been written for the characters. We want something that is up beat and really draws the audience in.

Problems we faced/ what went well

Originally our opening sequence was filmed around the track Barbie Girl by Aqua. We had to rethink how to film our opening as there were copyright issues by doing this. Camilla and Bex started to write a song for us to use in our opening sequence.

We were also unable to get hold of a tripod first time around, resulting in the camera being hand held and looking unprofessional.

When editing the new footage i found it difficult to cut it down, as there were elements that linked it together, but were not necessarily needed. We also seemed to be missing footage that i remember filming. This may be down to me not using the camera correctly. We will need to re-film the bits that we are missing, as some of it helps progress the narrative. 

First Cut

Filming Schedule

Saturday 22 January
We plan to get the bedroom scene and the ride to school completed on this day. We are unable to film the girls arriving and at school as one of our group members couldn't make it. We have arranged another day to do this.

Wednesday 26th January
Today we plan to complete the scenes at school. Once we have completed this, we will be able to concentrate on editing our footage.

Weather forecast

Although the weather type was not a big issue for our film, we didn't want to be filming in the rain. As well as this, we had to make sure the weather was the same for the two days we planned to film. Otherwise shots would look odd, if for example it was grey one day and more sunny the other. 

We filmed on the Saturday- weather was grey. Avoided rain. 

The forecast for our next filming day- Wednesday- is suppose to be rainy, Depending on what the weather is like on the day we may have to change our filming dates so that the footage looks as though it been filmed on the same day.

We decided not to film on the Wednesday due to the weather. So we started to edit the footage we got from the Saturday before hand. 

Animated story board

Before we created our animated storyboard we decided to look at ones that had already been created. As neither of us had produced one before this will help us know what type of finished product we hope to achieve. It will also help us when choosing the shots. 

Here i have animated our storyboard so that we have a brief idea what the opening credits will look like.
